I wanted to like this. I really did. The concept of a future where society has moved backward and a young man must stand up against his family in spite of that could be a very interesting read. But there are some problems here in terms of editing, continuity, and world building. How did things get there? One morning a man woke up and decided only White men should have any rights? Was there no struggle? It just seemed like it was all tossed out rather abruptly. And then the interactions between the characters, their motivations, and their development just didn't seem to follow an arc that I could really understand as a reader. Unfortunately, this just didn't work for me at all. ( )
